Description This dataset contains information on the strictness of social distancing measures against COVID-19 in the 27 Brazilian states, covering the period from 11th Mar 2020 to 10th Nov 2020 (the whole first wave of the pandemic in Brazil). There are data on individual social distancing measures, divided into six types of restrictions: 1) gatherings, sports, cultural and religious events; 2) non-essential shops; 3) bars and restaurants; 4) non-essential industry; 5) schools; and 6) public transportation. There are also data on mandaotry masking and control variables. These data can be used to replicate findings of the article 'Effects of non-pharmaceutical interventions on social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic: Evidence from the 27 Brazilian states', to be published in PLOS One.
